[QUOTE="Sheila, post: 38862, member: 23"] I've dealt with this issue for years. It's a difficult one. How we handled it: Only supervised visitation allowed, and only in a public place. Ground rules are: Try messing with his head and we are out-of-there -- no "second chances." Additionally, difficult child has full control regarding contact with birthmom, e.g., if he wants to meet with-her, we do. He names the date and time. If he doesn't want to, we don't. Biomom's "wants" carries not one-half ounce of weight in our decisions regarding contact (or anything else); it's for difficult child's benefit, not hers. [/QUOTE]
